Abstract
The goal of the study is to assess the sustainability of the development of regional economic clusters in the territorial socioeconomic system given the three interrelated components: the cluster development strategy, a set of indicators, and an institutional component.

The key findings of the study are as follows:
- The method presented in the paper is a tool for assessing the resource potential of regional clusters in order to ensure their sustainable development within the territorial socioeconomic system;
- Practical application of the developed model allowed to quantify the sustainability of the regional clusters development in the Karachaevo-Cherkess Republic and to define the efficiency of using production, financial and infrastructural resources in achieving added value growth by the cluster participants;
- Dynamics of the integral indicator of sustainable development of regional clusters of the Karachaevo-Cherkess Republic indicates the activation of cluster initiatives in this region and the increase in the efficiency of the cluster participants;
